Projects

  • Secure ID Tool Initiative ( 06/24 - 11/24 )
  • Led secure ID pilot rollout: directed the implementation of the secure ID verification platform for a combined Risk & Identity (R&I) team, developing expertise in validating customer identities and social media accounts. This initiative helped reduce high-risk reinstatement (HRR) errors significantly
  • Optimized HRR Outcomes: Successfully resolved 478 out of 1,520 flagged cases (31.45% overall recovery rate), with stronger results for Identity cases (38.10%) compared to Risk cases (26.75%). These efforts led to positive HRR performance variances of +7.85 for risk and +21.45 for identity during the project period
  • Drove efficiency and team integration : Improved investigative output through SecureID’s integrated data features, increasing average cases reviewed per hour Fostered collaboration among 24 team members across rotating shifts, positioning SecureID as the go-to tool for verifications within the BRI division.
  • Workflow efficiency study (06/24 - 10/24)
  • Diagnosed performance gaps: conducted a time-and-motion analysis across three Risk Ops Express queues, identifying delays caused by external checks and repeated internal queries, resolution time was higher (4.05 vs 3.62 minutes per case, especially in the Limited Volume Review queue. These inefficiencies contributed to underperformance in case throughput (15.10 vs 16.50 IPH)
  • Implemented Optimization Strategies: Removed outdated questioning (e.g., non-critical repayment history) and added refined prompts for uncertain payer links and suspected card leaks. Used SecureID and Risk Connect training to streamline external checks, resulting in improved team performance (17.05 vs. 16.50 IPH).
